Subject: Exe size!!!
>Hi,

Good luck!

hehehe fine :)
This question would fit more on the Allegro mailinglist. Check Allegros
page.

i

I think that too. But I use strip.exe instead.
>BUT when i run the game it has trouble

Then don't use -s!!! I recomend you to use Rhide without -S. It will
instantly tell you where the errors occured. It helps debugging a lot.

me

Yep. You're already using protected mode if you compile with DJGPP. It has
no 640k limit.
